Oscar Wilde
“Yet each man kills the thing he loves,
By each let this be heard,
Some do it with a bitter look,
Some with a flattering word,
The coward does it with a kiss,
The brave man with a sword!

Some kill their love when they are young,
And some when they are old;
Some strangle with the hands of Gold:
The kindest use a knife, because
The dead so soon grow cold.

Some love too little, some too long,
Some sell and others buy;
Some do the deed with many tears,
And some without a sigh:
For each man kills the thing he loves,
Yet each man does not die.”
Oscar Wilde, Selected Poems of Oscar Wilde including the Ballad of Reading Gaol

Sarah J. Maas
“You could rattle the stars," she whispered. "You could do anything, if only you dared. And deep down, you know it, too. That’s what scares you most.”
Sarah J. Maas, Throne of Glass

A.A. Milne
“I think we dream so we don’t have to be apart for so long. If we’re in each other’s dreams, we can be together all the time.”
A.A. Milne, Winnie-the-Pooh

A.A. Milne
“So perhaps the best thing to do is to stop writing Introductions and get on with the book.”
A.A. Milne, Winnie-the-Pooh

Ann Brashares
“Sometimes he felt sure that the key to happiness was a poor memory.”
Ann Brashares, My Name Is Memory
